Hey there,
I'm back today with a new episode of my Tale of Five Blankets.
Today I want to show you two blankets with a similar color palette.
For the first one (above) I've worked with Stylecraft Special DK in Storm Blue, Duck Egg, Grey, Stone, and Cream. The pattern is Dots'n'Dashes by Darla J. Fanton, that I had already used several times before. I've made this blanket for my shop, and since it sold pretty quickly, I thought I'd make another one with similar, "boyish" colors.
If you're a frequent visitor of my blog, you recognize this pattern (my favorite one) at once: it's the double-ended crochet baby blanket pattern which is available for free on Woman's Day.
On one side I've worked block stripes with the Stylecraft Special DK colors Storm Blue, Duck Egg, and Mocha. For the back side I picked Cream.
Although I usually work with bright rainbow colors, I have to say that I'm pretty pleased with the way these two blankets have turned out :)
Spoiler ahead: if you're a fan of colorful blankets, you shouldn't miss the next chapter... :)
See you then and have a great day,
Oh Barb love them both! Still have not figured out how to work that second pattern. :0( Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteBoth fabulous blankets! I'm working on a ripple blanket at the moment, also in colours I normally don't use, and it turns out great!
